Calling Statistics

Whether the calling is to current clients or prospects, the following are rough averages of the quantity of calls and numbers.

Per Hour - A Caller makes between 20-30 calls per hour, depending on the type of call and database.

Bad Phone - Often, about 5-10% of the phone numbers are bad or disconnected and we simply update the database.

Voice Mail - A majority of calls are a voice mail machine and we leave a short 30-second voice mail message. The message will always mention the real estate agent name and their phone number so any callbacks go directly to our client. About 80% of calls are voice mail, with an average of about 60%. Thus, it is important to be persistent and consistent in leaving messages in a cheerful voice and updating the database for a future callback.

Live Calls - The vast majority of live calls will be pleasant and happy to hear from the real estate agent company. Our experience is that probably 1-5% of calls, at most, are not interested in chatting for a few minutes.
